For an even smoother texture, use a ricer instead of a potato masher.
Substitute sour cream or crème fraîche for goat cheese to change the flavor profile.
Brown the butter before adding it to the potatoes for a nutty, caramelized flavor.
Add a pinch of nutmeg for warmth
Roasted garlic will add another layer of flavor dimension.
Make sure you drain the potatoes thoroughly to prevent watery mashed potatoes.

Jan 26, 2025I substituted the goat cheese for cream cheese because I didn't have any goat cheese. It turned out great!
